Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention is a mouse with a composite function button, in particular, a mouse that can simulate a mouse wheel signal and a button signal as a computer operating system The fourth button and the fifth button data of the mouse. [Prior Art] The mouse is currently the most commonly used computer input device. The control of the screen window can be performed by moving the cursor to the command option on the window. However, there are some functions, such as scrolling up/down, and the previous page/next page command when browsing the Internet page, which is a command that users often use. In the early days, the user had to move the cursor to the option position of the instruction on the screen each time the user executed the instruction, which caused inconvenience in use, so the mouse designer attached some mouse for the mouse. The function of controlling 1290298 of each function button can be defined by the mouse button to improve the convenience of use. For example, the current common 3D wheel mouse. The 3D wheel mouse is a mouse with a scroll wheel. The up/down scrolling of the computer screen reel can be controlled by turning the wheel forward/backward. Another conventional multi-button mouse is the so-called five-button mouse, such as Intel's IntelliMouse. The difference between the five-button mouse and the conventional 3D wheel mouse is that it has two more buttons, the fourth button and the fifth button. Microsoft's computer operating system, such as Windows2000 and WindowsXP, defines the function of the fourth button as the command "previous page", and the function of the fifth button is the command "next page" (next page) )". That is to say, when the user touches the fourth button, the operating system executes the "previous page" command, and the fifth button is pressed to execute the "next page" command. In other words, the user does not need to use the cursor to select the command option in the browser to execute the previous page/next page command. However, compared to a roller mouse with three buttons, a roller mouse with five buttons is more expensive, which means that the user has to purchase a five-button mouse to achieve the previous page with the mouse button. / The purpose of the next page (next page) instruction. If the user does not purchase Microsoft's five-button mouse, a specific mouse driver 1290298 must be installed before use, and the fourth and fifth functions can be used after the software is set. It is inconvenient for the user to purchase a higher-priced five-button mouse or to install a specific mouse driver and set it up. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to provide a mouse with a composite function button, which uses a carcass to simulate a mouse wheel signal and a button signal as a fourth and fifth button data of a mouse that can be recognized by a computer operating system. Therefore, the three-button mouse can be used to achieve the function of the five-button mouse without installing a driver. The invention provides a mouse with a composite function button, which can transmit a signal to a computer operating system, the operating system can recognize the data of a fourth button and a fifth button of a mouse with five buttons, the sliding The mouse comprises: a housing; a switch disposed in the housing for generating a button signal; a roller disposed in the housing and partially protruding from the surface of the housing, which can be front/ Rotating to generate a front/rear rotation signal, and when the voltage is touched down 7 1290298, the switch is activated to generate the button signal; a button signal analog module is disposed in the housing, and the roller is pressed And when the front/rear rotation is performed, the received button signal and the roller signal are converted into the fourth key data or the fifth key data that can be recognized by the operating system. The button signal simulation module is implemented in a carcass. The fourth button signal is a "previous page" command of the Internet browser (browser), and the fifth button command is a "next page" command. [Embodiment] Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a schematic diagram of the use state of the mouse of the present invention. Figure 3 shows the mouse 1000, computer screen 200, and computer host 300 of the present invention. The mouse 100 is connected to the host computer 300 to control the face of the computer screen 200. The Internet screen is displayed on the computer screen 200, and there are command options A and B on the screen, where A means "previous page" and B means "next page". The computer host 300 stores an operating system 301 such as Microsoft Windows 200 or Windows XP. 8 1290298 The mouse 1000 of the present invention comprises a housing 100, a roller 110, a switch 102, a control circuit 103, a first button 104 and a second button 丨05. The first button 104 and the second button 1〇5 perform a conventional mouse function, and the wheel ι〇1 can be scrolled forward/backward and can be pressed down by the user. When the user touches the roller 1〇1, the rotating shaft 1〇11 of the roller 101 can touch the switch 1〇2 (generally referred to as the second button of the mouse). The control circuit 101 has a button signal simulation module 1031 for simulating the wheel signal generated by the wheel 101 and the button signal generated by the switch ι2 as a five-button mouse recognizable by the operating system 3〇1. The fourth key and the fifth key data. Information about the Microsoft 5-button mouse format is available at the following website:

After the data is received by the operating system 301, an instruction action to execute the "previous page" A is generated. Therefore, the screen will shift to the previous page. Similarly, when the user touches the roller 101 downward and rotates the roller 101 backward, the button signal simulation module 1031 converts the signal generated by the action into the fifth key of the 1290298 mouse recognizable by the operating system 3〇1. After the data is received by the operating system 301, the command to execute the "next page" B is generated, so that the page will shift to the next page. The operation flow of the button signal simulation module 1031 is as follows: Step a: receiving the button signal and the wheel signal; Step b: determining whether the wheel is scrolling forward or backward according to the wheel signal; Step c: When the wheel signal indicates that the wheel is forward When scrolling, the fourth key data corresponding to the fourth key signal format of the operating system is generated and transmitted to the computer. When the scroll wheel signal indicates that the scroll wheel is scrolling backwards, the fifth key data corresponding to the fifth key signal format of the operating system is generated and transmitted to the computer. • Since the button signal analog module 1031 is implemented in the form of a firmware, it is directly disposed in the control circuit 103 of the mouse, so the user does not need to install any mouse driver in the host computer to execute. The function of the fourth and fifth keys of the mouse. The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the invention, and other modifications made without departing from the spirit of the invention are considered to be within the scope of the invention. 1290298 [Simple description of the drawing] The first figure is a state intention of one of the mouse of the present invention.
